John Fogerty ~ Centerfield

Well, beat the drum and hold the phone
the sun came out today!
We're born again, there's new grass on the field.
A-roundin' third and headed for home,
it's a brown-eyed handsome man
Anyone can understand the way I feel.

Oh, put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today!
Put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today;
Look at me, I can be Centerfield.

Well, I spent some time in the Mudville Nine,
watchin' it from the bench.
You know I took some lumps when the Mighty "Case"
struck out.
So, say Hey Willie, Tell Ty Cobb and Joe DiMaggio;
Don't say "It ain't so", you know the time is now.

Oh, put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today!
Put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today;
Look at me, I can be Centerfield.

Got a beat-up glove, and a homemade bat,
and a brand new pair of shoes;
You know I think it's time to give this game a ride.

Just to hit the ball and touch 'em all ~
a moment in the sun: {POP!}
It's gone and you can tell that one good-bye!

Oh, put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today!
Put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today;
Look at me, I can be Centerfield.

Oh, put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today!
Put me in, Coach ~ I'm ready to play today;
Look at me, I can be Centerfield.

YEAH!
